The situation in the room was getting too volatile, and I needed to do something to diffuse it before Dustin said more words that could further hurt his relationship with his brother. No matter how much I dislike the prick, I wouldn't want him fighting with his brother on my account, and I know how much being this way was hurting Dustin. Chase might not care, but Dustin does. The only reason he reacted like this is because of me. "Guys, please stop," I said softly, but it barely made a dent in the tension between the brothers as they continued to stare angrily at each other. Chase combative stance dissolved, and his posture relaxed, but his eyes remained hard with his anger and hatred now directed at his brother. "You are right, brother of mine. I shouldn't pick a fight with you. After all, you are the one with the big bad wolf. And we both know that here having a beast inside you is all that matters. But take care, brother, that the situation doesn't change in the future," he smirke
The dawn of a new day brought with it the healing of my wound, and along with it, anxiousness about my fate. I have been up even before the sun appeared in front of the sky, despite having gone to sleep late. I was kept up by the battling thoughts of the two brothers, which I must say is still unresolved, though my course of action should I remain in this pack remained unchanged. I must confess worried about which brother I liked more was the least of my problem this morning as I kept glancing towards the door every five seconds expecting Dustin, or anyone to walk through the door and let me know what the fuck is going on. My door has seen so many people come through it. The doctor, the nurses, the servants bearing food, but none of the people with the news I was dreading and at the same time longing to hear. Now it is afternoon, and still no words from anyone. The door opened again, and my heart jumped into my throat in anticipation only for my expression to wane when I saw the g
The expression on Dustin's face was ambiguous. I couldn't understand what he was feeling right now. He looked uncomfortable about something. I continued to watch his face even though I couldn't figure out his expression waiting for him to explain why, in the devil's hell, did he think that Lucifer did anything for my sake. It must really be a case of delusion. Dustin sighed sadly before responding in a weird tone. "I think my brother likes you." "Say what now!" I burst into laughter. I laughed until my belly ached, and all the while, Dustin stood watching me with a patient expression on his face. waiting for my amusement to fade with no sign of irritation. when I was able to control myself, I shook my head at him like he was too naive. "Thanks for your little joke. It helped relax me," I patted his hard shoulder, still wearing a smile on my face. I started off toward the screen on the other side of the room to change into the clothes
The elders looked pleased at my honesty. They glanced at each other, communicating with their eyes before turning around to look at me. "We are happy to welcome you to the pack, but first, you have to swear loyalty to us," said the elder in the middle. I looked at them confused. How do you swear loyalty to a pack? Do you kneel? Bow? Prostrate?They must have seen the confusion on my face because one of them spoke up to clarify. "You have to go down on your knees, head bowed, and swear that you will never do anything to harm or betray this pack..."That is easy enough, I relaxed thinking that the elder was finished, but he wasn't. "Even at the expense of your own pack," he finished. My whole body went rigid. The essence of this whole charade isn't just for them to offer me refuge, I intend to use their pack to liberate mine. What if they say no. According to this oat, I won't be able to do anything about it because the well-being of their pack will have to come before mine. The he
The Alpha’s chilled response left me dazed and confused. He has been acting differently ever since Dustin came to my rescue. What is going on behind that impassive , closed off expression? Before I could respond, Dustin, my ever knight in shinny amour did. "You can’t be serious, dad!" His voice was raised and challenging, and I don’t think he meant for it to come out that way. The expression on the Alpha’s face went down a few degrees. His eyes narrowed into a slit at his son. "Are you questioning my decision, boy?!" I reacted before Dustin could open his mouth and further worsened this deteriorating situation. I took his hand and squeezed it, stopping the words there were about to spew out from him. Dustin might be the good son, but when it comes to something he feels that isn’t right, he wants to seek justice, but this is the Alpha we are talking about here. He might be his father, but he can’t challenge him. As much as it pleases me that he is ready to do anything
The few of the pack members I came across had no idea where he could be, but I was lucky enough that one person had seen him heading towards the cabin house in the woods. The one Dustin and I visited few days ago. I had no idea how to get there, so I asked Frost for help. She was so inquisitive about why I wanted to see him. I didn’t have any answers for her, so I tried to brush her questions aside. It was just this feeling inside me that I couldn’t brush away no matter how much I wanted to. With Frost help I was able to locate the cabin again. Its outward beauty still made me pause and admire it, before moving forward towards the entrance. My stride was a little hesitant like I was giving myself chance to change my mind. A part of me wanted to, while the other pushed on, and before I could make up my mind on what I really wanted I was standing in front of the glass door, my fingers going for the buzzer beside the key pad. As soon as my fingers left the buzzer, I started to hy
I felt his breath on my skin like a feather tickle which startled me and made me jump out of my skin. I turned around sharply to face him, and unluckily ran into him. How the hell did he move so noiselessly. His hand of course automatically reached out to steady me, putting us in an even more dangerous pose. My breath got caught in my throat as I gawked at his handsome face like a fish out of water. I was so wrapped up in his enteral beauty that I forgot how much I disliked him. Him being who he is of course took advantage of my momentary lapse in concentration and kissed me. My whole body went still at the feel of his lips on mine. Push him away, he is not the one you want! My head screamed but my body was just too frozen to do a thing. Fallon! snap back to your senses! Frost roared in my mind, and I blinked back to consciousness to find myself entangled with Chase. I had my both arms behind his head, his hand was against my ass holding one of my leg up around his slim waist,
My eyes that were closed in pleasure flew open in horror at the sound of Dustin’s voice, and his approaching footsteps. I reacted before my brain could catch up and pushed Chase of me. It was so strong that it sent him crashing to the ground. I flew past him, ignoring his moans of pain, and rushed out of the room to intercept Dustin before he could make his way into the room. "Hey! you,” I greeted breathlessly, coming to a stop in front of Dustin, few feet away from Chase’s studio. I tried to act like nothing was amidst, but I couldn’t sell it. "Are you alright?” Dustin looked at me suspiciously. I nodded. "Why?” His regard grew focused as if he was trying to see something on my face. "You look flushed.” I blushed harder, and immediately looked away from his piercing stare. "It is nothing. Just your brother getting on my nerves. You know how he is,” I waved my hands trying to dismiss the whole things. "I had no clue that it was your nerves I had my hands all over. For that I
Chase and I lay side by side, panting after he fucked me shitless. My body was all sweaty, and he was the same. We didn't say anything to each other, as if speaking would shatter the relaxed atmosphere in the room. But we didn't need silence to destroy the little pleasure we gained from what we did. My conscience did it for me. "This was a mistake," I said and sat up on the bed. Now that the fog of lust has cleared from my head, I am thinking clearly, and I don't like what my head is screaming at me right now. I beat myself up for letting my clit do my thinking for me. I should be better than this. I didn't turn to look at Chase but got up from the bed to pick up my clothes. He didn't say anything in response to my words, so I looked at him. His expression was blank, and his eyes closed. I didn't know how to take or interpret his lack of response, so I dressed and got out of his room. Hopefully, this remains a secret between us. What happened with Chase is never gonna happen again
Chase continued to laugh like a maniac while my face burned like someone took a match to it. My hands on the tray tightened into fists as I fought the strong urge to murder him, but that would require me to turn around, and it was the last thing I wished to do. Not because he was hedious, or something. Far from it.The body I saw was an art in perfection. It wasn't muscular like his brother's, but slim and delicate-looking, like a fragile flower. An odd way to describe a man, I know, but that is how beautiful he looked. Unbidden, another part of him flashed into my mind. You would think a guy as delicate-looking as him wouldn't look so big in that department, but you're mistaken. Not only is he blessed, but just like him beautiful, even as it laid flaccid between his legs. My face burned harder as I thought things I wasn't supposed to. I felt ashamed inside me. I am supposed to stay away from Chase for the sake of my Pack, but I am letting my libido think for me instead of using my
I am not the submissive type, and having to beg and lower myself in front of these people makes me so mad that I want to lash out. The only thing keeping the cap on my rage is the years of discipline drilled into me from a young age by my father. He was the one who trained me to be the warrior that I am now, and one thing my father has always maintained among his warriors is discipline. If you step out of line, you will be punished, no matter who you are. So would any other member of the Pack who disobeys the rules and regulations that govern the Pack. My saying please was not not enough top satisfy the damn over weight woman in front of me, she had to try and prove that she has some power when she is nothing. "Why would you want leftovers? I thought you just had dinner?" She looked at me like I was some beggar from the street begging for crumbs. "I don't know why the Alpha would allow a stranger that eats like a whale into the Pack. What is she trying to do? Eat us out of the Pac
Everyone was sent out of the room, including the Alpha, for Dr. George to attend to Luna. The Alpha was hoovering too much and driving his mate and the doctor insane. Outside, he was driving us insane with his pacing. He looked as if his mate was in labour. It wasn't clear how much the giant cared for the petite woman. Their relationship reminded me of my parents, and that filled my heart with sadness. These past few days, I have tried not to think about my Pack and what is happening to them. But occasionally, my thoughts flicker to them, and I can't help the pain and sorrow that come with it. There were a few of us hanging out in the living room: Alpha and his second, Dustin, Vivian, and a few guards. Chase didn't catch up with us, and no one knew where he was. I don't think anyone cared. All focus was on the Luna. Dustin, like his father, looked very worried, though unlike him, he was a picture of composure. His calm and composure in the face of such a distressful situation is a
The four of us walked silently towards the Pack hospital, where we knew Dr. George would be. The silence was thick with tension, and Dustin and I felt uncomfortable in the presence of our two uninvited guests. He walked on my left while Chase and Vivian brought up the rear. "So, are you two together?" Vivian asked, breaking the silence. Her question caused me to stiffen inside, and I also felt a change in Dustin, though his confident stride remained. As if we were in each other's thoughts, we answered together. None of your business, and then turned to look at one another. "Jinx," we said with smiles on our faces. We chuckled, but the two behind us didn't find anything humorous in our actions. We felt their glares but pretended not to. Chase was awfully quiet, so unlike him. His usual self would have tried to push my buttons or his brothers'. I wanted to look back, but I forced myself to continue. Why am I even bothered if he was quiet or not? I asked myself angrily. I was irrit
Dutin's uncharitable greeting to Vivian caught Nyx's attention. She was not happy about her son being rude to the blonde. I, on the other hand, felt different. There could only be one reason the blonde was eating with us tonight: to cause trouble."Dustin, don't be rude to our guest," she scolded, with a heavy frown on her face, as if confused about why Dustin was behaving this way. Dustin was the model son, and from what I have seen, he was always on his best behaviour. However, there are two people who push his buttons to the extent that he loses control. One is the evil bitch in front of us, and the other is his brother. Does this mean that the dark-haired boy still cares for the blonde? It shouldn't bother me; after all, I have a mate, but still, I wasn't expecting the intense jealousy that gripped my heart at the thought of Dustin still in love with Vivian. Maybe I am greedy or just a bad person, thinking of having one brother and still seeing the other. My head might tell me
Dustin paused briefly in his hot stride at his brother’s words, the hand holding mine tightening so hard that it hurt. There was look of intense fury and hardness on his face that I feared he was going to rush back and murder his brother, but then it quickly resided and he continued on without sparing Chase a glance or a word. I was impressed by his tight control and being the bigger person. It was obvious that Chase was itching for a fight. I was also curious about what Chase meant by his words, but now wasn’t the time to explore my curiosity. We walked back to the pack in silence. It was very uncomfortable and tensed. The hand holding on to mine was gentle, but the body walking beside me was stiff and guarded. Like the first time we met. I felt anxious about his silence and cold attitude and itched to say something. But what? I didn’t know how to break the pregnant silence between us. All through the walk back, I held my peace, but as soon as we broke into view of the Pa
My eyes that were closed in pleasure flew open in horror at the sound of Dustin’s voice, and his approaching footsteps. I reacted before my brain could catch up and pushed Chase of me.
